Hello my friends! Thanks for clicking on this Fanfiction. My friend and I had been lingering in the fandom for awhile. One day Blue and I were in my room, and she just said, 'Let's just write a Fanfiction already!' and that sparked the beginning of our little fanfic. Just keep in mind this is Blue and my first Fanfiction, so bear with us, lol. Criticism is appreciated, good and bad. If it's bad, please make it constructed and not just haphazardly. Thank you! -Zircon and Blue Topaz.

Zircon: Let's just get on with the story already!

OoOoOoOoO

-Chapter 1-

The streets were bustling with gem citizens and military. Ever since the rebellion thousands of years ago happened, Yellow Diamond had enforced heavy military monitoring, just in case some of the gems decided to try to shatter her gem and take over. Nothing of the sort has happened of that- yet. Maybe in the next thousand years something might happen. But for now, the war was somewhat dormant.

Yellow Diamond had sent her chief technician to Earth in search for the Kindergarten and their gem cluster experiments. When Peridot returned back to Homeworld reporting there was a minority of the gem rebellion left, she sent her commander, Jasper, and a captive gem Lapis Lazuli to Earth with Peridot and her ship. The series of events after that we're catastrophic. Peridot losing her foot- and getting lost, along with Lapis holding Jasper captive in a fusion at the bottom of the ocean. Yellow Diamond's solution; send more gems. Two gems made their way down a back way to Yellow Diamond's citadel on call.

"I wonder what she wants from us now..." the taller gem, Blue Topaz, wondered aloud comrade- and second in command.

"Dunno, but it doesn't sound good.." the shorter one named Zircon sighed. The two looked like any other normal militia gem, The diamond symbols on their attire and whatnot. She brushed her neon-blue colored hair off of her shoulder as she looked upwards to her friend. "Maybe she found the others and got them back here?"

"Doubt it." Blue lightly chuckled as she shook her head, her gold-streaked ponytail moving with the motion of her head.

"..Then I wonder what she wants.."

The two had finally arrived at the citadel, where two Pearls summoned their spears and blocked the door from their entry. Zircon always had gotten annoyed with those drones, they always seemed like she was a threat. A loose cannon she was, but never wanted to kill anyone.

"Look, if we're gonna do this EVERY time we come to the citadel, I might was well just stay out. Let me in. Now." Zircon snapped at the two Pearl drones, as they continued to glare blankly at her.

Blue Topaz bit back her laughter as she shook her head and placed a gentle hand on the left Pearl's shoulder. "We are no threat. Please let us in."

"Access granted." the Pearl said, as the two lifted their spears from the doorway and they walked through the entrance, Zircon sweeping the left Pearl's feet and making her fall. She quickly ran back to her friend's side, snickering quietly to herself.

As they walked through the halls and to the warp pad to the top level, both of them felt an ominous feeling to them, like something bad was going to happen. They ignored it, they always felt that way when they walked through the gunmetal grey and yellow diamond-encrypted halls. The diamonds on the walls gave a source of light from their glow, if not, the halls would be darkened and even MORE ominous.

The two had finally made it to the top, after a long series of warp pads. Yellow Diamond was standing at one of the glass-pane walls, watching the world under her. Zircon cleared her throat a little bit as they straightened. She turned and side-looked them.

"I am glad you could make it." her silky voice filled the room. She turned fully to face them, her gem replacing her right eye. "I have a mission for you both."

Zircon died a little inside. She knew where her comrade and her we're going.

Earth.

"And what is the destination, my lady?" Blue Topaz questioned respectfully.

"The planet where I had sent the three. Earth."

It took every single mass cell of Zircon's gem not to physically groan.

"When is our departure?" Zircon asked- sarcasm dripping from her voice, earning both a glare from Topaz and Yellow Diamond.

Yellow Diamond approached Zircon dangerously, and outstretched her clawed hand to Zircon's face. She took her hand back a little, before slashing across her face, leaving four deep gashes going from her cheekbone to the other side of her jawline. Zircon grunted in pain and staggered back a little, holding the side of her face the most damaged.

She stepped back again, regaining her regal stance. "Your departure is in six hours starting now. You will use your own transportation."

"As you wish." Blue bowed lightly to her liege, and took Zircon with her out of the citadel and into the atmosphere.

"...Totally nailed it.." Zircon mumbled, still holding onto her face.

"If you went any farther, you would've gotten BOTH of us shattered." Blue sighed as the two made their way down to their temple-housing.

"I know I know," Zircon held her free hand up in a 'calm down' motion. "Don't worry."

They had gotten to behind of their temple where a large escape pod would be, but apparently was not there. "..Someone stole your ship."

Zircon groaned and went over to the spot. "I completely forgot, it's in for maintenance."

"Wouldn't it be back by now?"

"Well, Peridot's robonoids aren't here. So, for once in a thousand years, it has to be manually fixed."

Blue Topaz sighed. "Of course. Well, what now?"

The shorter gem had a devious smirk on her face, making the taller one a bit uneasy.

"That look isn't good..." she groaned. "What are we stealing now?"

"It's not stealing, it's simply borrowing." Zircon danced a little in place. "Here's the plan." she turned around and a holoform of her plan sprouted from where her gem was; her back.

The holoform showed the two gem pawn-like figures moving through a large hangar- Peridot's warehouse where she kept all her ships and escape pods.

"No no, we can't do that!" Blue exclaimed. "We'll be shattered for sure." she looked at the gem resting on her inner forearm, the blue surface sparkling in the sunlight.

Zircon sighed. "But, we have no other choice. Would you rather take Yellow Diamond's ship?"

"No." Blue Topaz shuddered. "That would be...Catastrophic."

"Then we take one of Peridot's escape pods."

Blue stared at the hologram for a while, before sighing defeatedly. "Fine."

"Good!" Zircon perked up. "We'll leave in an hour."

"I just hope it's all worth it..."

...

The time had passed swiftly, with all the duties they had to do and guarding. It had gotten a bit darker, and a few gems were scattering to their temples, it was near curfew. Yes, Homeworld had a curfew for their citizens. Zircon and Blue Topaz had snuck off from their duties and slowly made it to Peridot's hangar. They stopped when a group of guards- or Pearls, walked by and checked to see if every gem was in their temples. Zircon was the first one in the hanger, then Blue. They scoped it out, and finally found one of Peridot's last escape pods.

"We can't both fit in here." Blue remarked after a long time of silence. The silence was so long, it startled Zircon.

She looked at her friend. "Can't we just fuse, then?"

"We would be too big to fit in there, then."

The short gem groaned. "I don't wanna do it."

"You're going to have to, if we want to get to Earth."

"...Fine. But, Let's hope you won't be in there forever. I need you." Zircon chuckled lightly, but also nervously. Blue Topaz was very calm about this, it would be nearly painless. Well, scratch that. Very painful. She stepped closer to her and placed a hand on her shoulder, with her calming smile.

"It will be fine. Just get it over with."

Zircon summoned her two machetes. She hesitated for a while.

"Just do it." she held open her arms in welcome of the steel blades.

Then, Zircon had sliced the holoform in half before the body became light, and vanished with a burst of air. Her gem landed on the ground with a light 'tink!' sound, as it echoed through the large area. Luckily no one was there, so the remaining gem could break for it. She picked up the cobalt-blue gem and bubbled it, but not sending it away back to their temple. She simply let it float behind her, like a lost puppy following a person.

She had made a mad dash for one of the nearest pods, the bubble still in her wake. She tried opening the front of it, but no avail. "What is going on with this thing?" she banged her fist against it a few times, a hollow sound emitting from it. A sigh escaped the gem's grey lips. She sat on the top of the pod, thinking of another solution. Zircon had an idea and shot up, nearly falling off the spherical item.

"Agate..."

I hope you guys liked it! I just want to let you all know that I have made the first few chapters, but they may take awhile to complete. procrastination School and whatnot. We were originally planning to finish the story BEFORE posting it, so it wouldn't take as long to update and stuff. But, we will try our best to work on it! Thaaaanks!~
